Obituary
It's with regret that I announce the passing of Roger Graham.
Roger collapsed on the green on Saturday 5th September & was in Ninewells Hospital Dundee since then.
Roger managed to breath on his own but on Tuesday suffered another heart attack and again on Wednesday night.
His journey finally ended Thursday afternoon.
Roger was one of our relatively new members and was always there to help the club and mixed well with everybody.
He'll be sadly missed by all of the members and all of our thoughts go out to his family in these sad times.
R.I.P. Roger.


Obituary
It is also with regret that I announce the passing of Charlie Speedie.
When Charlie joined the Perth Bowling Club, he was suffering from dementia, but the members knew of his history
and his capabilities within the game of bowls. Charlie was an asset to the club.
He was mistreated by his former Bowling Club!
Charlie was well known within the bowling calendar as he was also an official Umpire and
respected throughout all members.
Unfortunately, Charlie had to give up the bowling but enjoyed watching.
Our thoughts again go out to his wife Chris and their family at these sad times.


Obituary
It's  with regret that I announce the passing of  one of our loyal members Bobby Dowie,
from what I've been informed about Bob, was that he joined the Perth Bowling Club from Darnhall Bowling Club
and had been a member at the Perth club for around 20 years or slightly longer.

Bobby was a cantankerous person but always had the club at heart, sometimes known as Del Boy with the help from
certain contacts he had. Always reliable for raffle prizes and donations, one of Bobby's highlights was winning the
Nomination Pairs with Ross Dennis against Cameron Little & Dave Allan.

All of our thoughts from the Club goes out to the family at this difficult time.

RIP Bobby.


Obituary

Throughout the years George  did a lot for the club in more ways than one, he also helped  by painting the outside of the club for our 150th Club Anniversary, all of our thoughts go out to all of the family at this very hard time. He was a very good bowler and will be sadly missed by all of our members RIP.
